The Kennedy name has been denigrated by RFK jr., an embarrassment to the family, but his uncle the President recognized the value of liberal leaning policies! 👇

Even his (Trump’s) prepared speeches contain misleading or false information. U.S. and U.K. troops almost always fought in separate corps/armies in WWII, they almost never “fought together”; but Canadian (and other commonwealth forces) DID fight within the U.K. army structures. He’s such an arse.
